Known for her swoony men who always fall first, Brittanée loves stories centered around strong friendships that form the basis of a found family and messy, beautiful love that make her laugh. When she is not writing she enjoys spending time outdoors by the water with her children, reading at the beach or by the pool (or really anywhere), dancing with her friends, singing Karaoke, spinning, long walks by the water and boating.

Sloane St. James began writing after working with romance authors during the pandemic and immediately fell in love with the craft. It combines two of her favorite things, books and getting plowed. She loves writing strong, witty females and the dirty-talking men that love them--with a little suspense tossed in wherever she can. As an avid hockey fan, her Lakes Hockey series was a natural place to start and debuted in March 2023. When she's not writing, she enjoys spending time with her family, traveling, and, of course, reading romance.Sloane St. James
